how to extend the postbit legacy

[Treak]

how do you make it so that way the username doesn't wrap when using more then 12 characters? is there a way to extend that and make it longer so my 12 character username doesn't end up like this

Save The
Queen

because my
username on my forum is Save The Queen and it wraps it drops the queen down underneath and i don't want that. i'd like to to flow all the way across

In your postbit template, you need to wrap the username variable with no wrap attributes.

lol and how do you do that?

Find:
$post[username]
Add before:
<span style="white-space: nowrap;">
Add after:
</span>

I thought they stopped using the white-space and went to nowrap="nowrap", although I see both of them in the templates.

Both work, my way is using CSS and your method is just using HTML attributes. I prefer CSS BTW :p.

hmm didn't work at all.. you're more then welcome to come to my forum and show me how.. because i did it like you said only there is like 32042903 spots that say $post[username]

so which one is the right one?

[Dismounted]

Well, as in my post (first one), I said to edit the postbit (or postbit_legacy, depending on which you use). ;)

Which one is vb going to, do you know? They have it both ways in the templates. I agree, CSS is the better way to go.

I have no idea which way vBulletin is going (I'm not a dev :p). But most likely they will move to CSS in 4.0, due to pressures from other packages, users and the way the web is moving.
